Default Damaged headlight lens

Had to lay the bike down when the angle and wieght got the better of me when moving it around to make sure safely parked only damage is some scratches to the right side headlight cover from the small brick wall i was to close to at time. Had a quick look on line but could only see the full headlight assembly which is a shame as the bike look like brand new except for them few scratches.So has anyone seen just the lense covers anywhere its a 08 650s.

Thanks

I think it is one unit, all sealed.

you are right, it is one unit, however the front is bonded on and a little heat (in an oven, carefully) will make the job easier, but if the scratches aren't deep perhaps you could polish them out with fine paste and a mop.

Cheers Mark.
